Yamamoto allowed four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out eight over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Cardinals on Wednesday.

Yamamoto cruised through five innings, but he gave up a pair of two-run homers over the last two frames of his start. That cost him a quality start, and the Dodgers' bullpen would ultimately falter when Tanner Scott failed to protect a lead in the eighth inning. Yamamoto had allowed just four runs over his previous four starts combined (24.1 innings), giving up only one homer in that span, though he was limited to a 1-1 record during that stretch. He's now at a 2.67 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 161:38 K:BB through 165 innings across 25 starts. His next outing is projected to be at home versus the Reds.

Peterson (7-8) took the loss against the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing six runs on seven hits and four walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

The southpaw never quite got going Wednesday, surrendering a pair of runs in the opening frame and being scored upon in three of the four innings he worked. It marked just the third time through 12 appearances that Peterson conceded more than two runs in a Cubs uniform. Chicago plans to bring Edward Cabrera (blister) back as a reliever eventually, positioning Peterson for a rotation spot the rest of the way. He'll carry a 4.58 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 50:26 K:BB over 59 innings with Chicago into a road rematch with Milwaukee.

Misiorowski took a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday, allowing five runs on five hits and four walks in four innings. He struck out five.

It was a rare misstep for the National League Cy Young frontrunner, who coughed up a season-high five runs Wednesday. The outing stopped Misiorowski's streak of starts with three earned runs or fewer at 25, and the five punchouts matched a season low as well. Still, he responded well with two scoreless frames after Chicago jumped on him during the first two innings. He'll be looking to get back on track in a home rematch with the Cubs next week, still boasting a 1.97 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 227:39 K:BB over 155 innings.

Sugano did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out four.

It was a nice bounce-back outing from Sugano, who gave up 17 earned runs over just 12 innings in his previous three outings. Overall, Sugano is 12-8 this season with a 5.19 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 79:30 K:BB across 25 starts (131.2 innings). The right-hander is currently lined up to face the Yankees on the road his next time out.

Perez took a no-decision against the Royals on Wednesday, allowing six runs on nine hits and three walks in 4.2 innings. He struck out three.

It was tough sledding from the get-go for Perez, who let in five runs in the opening frame and served up a season-high three home runs after conceding just one in his previous 10 appearances. The hard-throwing right-hander is beginning to struggle on the mound -- he's given up 11 runs in his past two starts after yielding 11 earned runs in his nine outings prior to that stretch. He'll look to bounce back his next time out versus the Mets, still holding a strong 3.72 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 145:59 K:BB over a career-high 135.1 innings.

Chandler allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four across five innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Wednesday.

Chandler put the Pirates on the back foot early after yielding a solo homer to Rafael Devers in the first inning. Chandler bounced back to retire the next six batters he faced before giving up another two runs in the fifth, but he received enough run support to avoid the loss. The 23-year-old right-hander has allowed at least three earned runs in two of his last three outings and has a 4.30 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 136 innings this season. His 71 walks issued are third most in the majors behind only Robbie Ray (73) and Joey Cantillo (72). Chandler is tentatively slated to start next week on the road against the White Sox.

Roupp did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Pirates, allowing one run on two hits and two walks while striking out four across five innings.

Roupp got himself into a bases-loaded situation in the fourth inning, but he limited the damage to one run on a two-out, bases-loaded walk. He's allowed one run in back-to-back outings and three times over his last five starts, leaving him with a 4.17 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 137:68 K:BB over 144.2 innings this season. Roupp is slated to take on the Cardinals next week in what projects to be the first of a two-start week.

Hagenman allowed one run on two hits and one walk while striking out two across three innings in a no-decision against the Rays on Wednesday.

Wednesday was Hagenman's season debut for the Mets, with the 29-year-old right-hander starting the year on the injured list due to a fractured rib. He kept the Rays off the board through the first two innings before giving up an RBI single to Jonathan Aranda in the third. Hagenman tossed only 46 pitches (26 strikes), though that's not entirely surprising given his lengthy stint on the IL. He figures to shift to the bullpen in a long-relief role since Jonah Tong is expected to start for the Mets next week against the Marlins, per Mike Puma of the New York Post.

The Dodgers placed Lauer on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with left elbow inflammation.

Lauer was lit up for seven earned runs in just three innings during his start Tuesday, and he appears to have come away from his outing with an elbow issue. He'll now use the next couple of weeks to recover, and the Dodgers will return Blake Treinen (elbow) from the 60-day IL to provide extra bullpen depth while the team sorts out its rotation plans.

Painter didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing just two hits and no walks over seven scoreless innings. He struck out six.

Painter was stellar Wednesday, as he held Arizona to just a pair of singles, though he ultimately came away with a no-decision as the Phillies failed to provide any run support in an eventual 1-0 defeat. Painter has now delivered three straight quality starts, allowing just four runs while striking out 21 over 20 innings during that span. He's lowered his ERA to 5.55 across 105.1 innings this season with a 1.37 WHIP and 91:37 K:BB. Painter is currently in line to face the Astros at home his next time out.
